Trying to use Monday to manage Facebook Ad Spend. Is there a way to attach existing Monday items to specific Facebook ad IDs for budget management?

We have existing items in Monday that correlate with Facebook ads we run. We use these items across multiple boards including one for managing the ad spend and remaining budget. I tried using the Facebook ads integration but that just creates more items in the board, it does not update our already existing ones. Since these items are connected to multiple boards and many people work on them, creating a new item wouldn’t update the necessary people.

I’m wondering if anyone has found a way to attach a Facebook ads ID to an already existing Monday item so that the ad spend for that item is pulled in automatically.

@clinicalresearch if you’re still looking for a solution for this, then you can use the Data Importer app to pull in metrics such as spend for items that contain an ad id that is already in your existing board.

I’ve got a tutorial here for Facebook Posts urls, but the app lets you do the same thing with Facebook Ad ids too.

If this isn’t quite what you’re looking for let me know and I may be able to help. Cheers!
